wilting flowers

i planted some flowers that appear to be dying. We water them about every other day right now and it has been pretty hot and dry here. Am I not watering them often enough? or long enough? can i bring them back if they start getting more water?

I might be because you aren't watering them enough. They might need some every day. But not sure. It's not too hot here most of the time and it has just rained here so much this time of year for the last couple of years that we can't get our veggies to really go yet. Our flowers look great though. I would try watering them everyday for a bit. Not sure how much, but they may come back if you do. It's worth a try anyway.

yes, they are all out in our front garden. I know for part of the day there is some shade, but it is mostly sunny. I have been watering every day after dinner and i have already noticed a huge difference!

like miracle grow? i havn't for my flowers. i just bought a strawberry root though and I am using miracle grow on that. I have never grown any food before though so we will see if anything comes of it haha

My flowers need plant food. My roses especially do not do well without it. They will start out with 6 or 7 roses, then use everything they have for those flowers then be done for the rest of the season unless I give them plant food. Once I give them plant food they start over again and have several more roses on them. I bought my plant food from Walmart in the garden section.
